New Countdown!: February 2019

Jars of Clay

It's the beginning of NaNoWriMo and all my friends are busy working on their books, I've decided to publish at least one podcast every day of the month, which basically just amounts to starting to release episodes on the weekends. Which is a good, cool thing because if I keep it up, I'll be caught up by the end of the month!

New Countdown!: January 2019

Imagine Dragons

Well here it is! The first month of 2019 covered! Haha I think I have things semi-sorted now and I'm hoping (i know i say this all the time, but whatever lol) to start getting these out with more of a quickness, so that we can wrap the year in a caught-up sort of place.

Enjoy!

2018 Year End Countdown!!

Portugal. The Man

It's a little late (only.......8 or so months late...) but here it is. The Year-End Countdown for 2018. It's fun to look back at the songs that were hitting the chart hard in 2018 and this was a lot of fun to do! Enjoy!

New Countdown: Well, Not "New" In All the Ways, But Certainly in Some of the Ways

Muse

Hey. Here is a countdown of the songs that were on the Alternative Songs Top 10 in December 2018. Relevant? Probably not. But it's a batch of good, fun tunes and I think you might enjoy them a lot! Hit play and see if I'm right!

New Countdown (November 2018): Quote Unquote

We're doing some more catch up this episode and this time it's November 2018! Good songs, an artist of the month I know very little about and hopefully the establishment of a momentum to keep these things coming!

New Countdown (October 2018): Eyes on the Prize

twentyonepilots. I just realized how appropriate this is for October

Hey. So the last time you heard me on this show, I was talking about switching up the format a little bit to catch up. Well this is the first episode of that and I think it went fairly well. I'm hoping to get these out with a fair amount of regularity, then get back to doing week-by-week. But holding this format in my back pocket if I might need it. Enjoy!

New Countdown: Two Different Armstrongs!

Imagine Dragons

And so we reach the end of September 2018. But fear not, we're going to be switching things up for the next couple of episodes and I'm very excited about it. Here's a fun thing, I didn't come up with this new plan until a couple of days before I recorded the intro for lovelytheband, so when you listen to me before that on the show, you know something that I don't. And then stay tuned to the last intro to hear what the plan actually is.

New Countdown: VERY Loose Definition of the Word "Blues"

twenty one pilots

We're back with another countdown and this time we have a plan. It's a plan that lets us off the hook a little bit but which also relieves a lot of stress that we were feeling about the prospect of catching up. Stress that apparently makes us speak in the plural 3rd person. How fun! Enjoy the episode. It goes places!

New Countdown: So Duet Already!

lovelytheband

We've got some lovely old school duets in our bonus songs this week and the really funny thing is that, even though I'm going to put both participants (because why wouldn't I?) you won't know which song it is that I'm playing! Enjoy!!

New Countdown: Countdown? More like GET Down!

Foster the People

I feel like there are a lot of songs (and bonus songs) on this week's countdown that are designed to get you moving! So take this one out on the dance floor and cut a rug! Then take those rug pieces and give them to someone who collects things cut in half! They'll love it! And you'll love making it!

New Countdown: What a Coincidence!

Bastille Pumpkin by @NelllieHope12 mentioned in the episode

It's wild, the things that happen to crop up when you're doing this podcast. I made a last minute change to one of the bonus songs and happened to pick a song with a connection to one of the songs on the countdown that I didn't consider until I was doing the introduction for it. So weird! Look forward to hearing the astonishment in my voice!

New Countdown: Six Next to Me

Two Feet

And we're back for some more countdown goodness! I really hate when I start recording an episode and then I get distracted. It happens often and then I'll hear a song (or even a BAND!) from the countdown and feel all guilty. But my guilt can be assuaged for at least 3 days because I got another one done! Woohoo!

New Countdown: Sisyphean Task Completed at a Motel 6 in Harrisonburg, Virginia

Sir Sly

Well, I've been working on this one, officially, for about 3 weeks now, so that's frustrating. But the good news is that it's done! I think we can all rejoice about that one. The sound might be a little all over the place since I recorded it in many different locations with many different sound set ups and recording postures. But it's done and it's good!
